At least 90 people were killed on Friday in a regime barrel bomb attack on bakery and petrol station in a rebel-held city of Manbej in the northern countryside of Aleppo, a monitor and activists said.
Bashar al-Assad's helicopters committed a massacre, dropping a barrel bombs on a bakery in Manbej city, killing 90 civilians, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights group said.
Activists said the death toll was expected to rise because of the number of serious injuries among the wounded.
For months, the regime has waged an unrelenting aerial campaign against the opposition-held areas making particular use of crude so-called barrel bombs.
